Dim Sum Restaurants near Newark, CA

“A wonderful pasty store I found accidentally. I got chicken dumplings and beef and onions stuffed pancakes from the frozen section to make at home. They also have ready made food you can enjoy immediately.
If you have any questions, don’t be afraid to ask. The place is very friendly.“

“Great BBQ ducks. The staff is friendly, but busy. The deli is always a line, so don't expect restaurant level service, it's all fast food plastic forks and spoons. But it is tasty and very generous portion and filling.

Aside from the duck, Lo Mai Gai (Dim Sum Sticky Rice Chicken) had been my favorite .“

“I went there in a Sunday morning to pick up a couple of Dim Sums, preserved egg & pork congee and pan fried turlip/radish cakes, to go. There were plenty of parking spaces. There were 8 or 9 tables inside and the plenty of tables outside. The lady behind the counter was very friendly. The food was steaming hot when I arrived at my destination. Very tasty as well!“

“Really enjoyed the food here! Everything was fresh, flavorful, and cooked really well. The portions were generous, and the taste was even better than I expected. The service was friendly and quick too. Definitely a great place to grab a meal with friends or family. I’ll definitely be coming back again!“

“Came on a Sunday around 7pm and there was still a line but we were seated within 15 mins so not terrible. They use QR scanning on the table but the servers do come around to check if you have questions. We ended up seated outside, which wasn't bad since it was a bit warm that day.

We ordered the regular soup dumplings (XLB), the pan fried ones, (SZB), the egg and Chive pancake, and the green onion noodles (recommended by the server). Both baos were excellent and we ended up ordering seconds of both of those. The chive pancakes were pretty good and the noodles were tasty as well but we felt that for the price, it wasn't worth it.

We'll likely be back again but stick to the baos.“

“This cozy breakfast spot specializes in Shanghainese comforts. Service is brisk and no-nonsense. We ordered a few staples — wontons, noodle soups and xiaolongbao — all of them competent and satisfying.

The pork kidney noodle soup is a rarity in the United States, though here the kidney is cut thick and left unstir-fried, so it contributes less flavor to the broth than it could. It is better treated almost as a side than as an integral part of the soup. The xiaolongbao are tasty, if more rustic in appearance than the finely pleated versions served at more polished places like Din Tai Fung.

Still, this is an honest, unfussy restaurant well worth returning to.“

“Finding high-quality dim sum delivery that doesn't arrive soggy or smashed is rare, but Dim Sum SL absolutely nailed it. Everything was packaged securely, arrived piping hot, and stayed completely intact during transit. If you are looking for the best dim sum takeout in the area, this spot is highly efficient.

The food breakdown:

Shrimp and Chive Fried Dumplings: Easily the highlight of the order. The wrapper had a perfect, crispy golden fry to it without being oily at all. The filling was incredibly flavorful, packed with fresh chives and plump shrimp.

Shrimp Dumplings (Har Gow): Excellent execution. The translucent dumpling skin had the perfect chew and didn't tear when picking them up. Inside, they use actual high-quality, whole choice pieces of snap-fresh shrimp instead of a filler paste.

Pork and Shrimp Dumplings (Siu Mai): A classic done right. These were savory, juicy, beautifully seasoned, and packed tight with a great balance of pork and shrimp flavor.

Fried Buns: The buns had a good chewy texture—crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. The dough has a subtle, mild sweetness to it that pairs perfectly with the savory interior ingredients.

It is incredibly impressive to get restaurant-quality dim sum delivered right to your door without losing any freshness or texture. Everything tasted great. Highly recommended!“

“We have not been here in many years. What a pleasant surprise they still deliver the same great quality food and service. And now, they have outside seating too. They still have the traditional carts roaming around the dining room with delicious choices. We liked that the classic dimsum fare was still being served and they do not scrimp on portions, unlike many dimsum places in Millbrae and Daly City. The shu mai was juicy and large, as were the shiu bao. The tofu skin wrap had a lot of filling instead of several layers of tofu skin. The ham suy ko was plump and crisp on the outside but chewing on the inside with a good amount of filling. We came for a late lunch but they were still full. Their service was friendly but brisk and efficient. The place was clean and pleasant. We will be back!“

“Food is good and service is nice and warm. I will bring friends come again definitely!“

“Very good food, esp. Dim Sum.“

“Had a delicious lunch with 1 family member & his visiting friend today. We all enjoyed the dishes that the only photos I took were desserts consisting of the classic sesame balls (bigger than anywhere else I’ve eaten) & the black sesame mochi in peanut crumble (only place I’ve seen).

The portion is generous on the mentioned desserts above & the mushrooms dumplings.

The only thing I dislike in Chinese restaurants in general is the WHITE RICE that I mistakenly ordered 2 bowls which I should have refused.

Japanese white rice still reigns supreme in my book.

A few attentive waiters served our table which I preferred, vs 1 designated server, which means we could call on any available waiter for assistance.

We could only ordered so much for 3 diners, so there are more reasons to go back to enjoy other dishes.

Prices are on the higher side due to @ the DT location.

PS — Parking in residential streets a few blocks away, for 2 hours at-a-time… Doesn’t DT want people to stay longer?“

“Good food, good service, reasonable prices“

“Used this place to cater a party. We ordered 30-40 of 6 different things and ALL was a hit. The shrimp and chive pan friend dumping was what won my heart. Everyone asked me where the dim sum was from. Atmosphere is your traditional Chinese mom and pop shops which I always find comforting and thats when you know the food is good! Pricing was fair compared to the raising prices eerywhere else.“

“Very authentic Cantonese clay pot dishes. Everything came out piping hot. The flavors are spot on. The place is clean and not crowded. Service is fast. The only negative is that the ribs in the pot we ordered were very chewy and the sliced meats in the porridge were also chewy. However all the cured meats and sausages were perfect so we still enjoyed the dishes. Will definitely come back to try another time.“

“I recommend EVERYTHING! Everything that I have tried is delicious!“

“Whole in the wall with very tasteful and authentic dimsum and more, our go to place. Very affordable prices and variety of selections. Chef’s little girl is so cute, and already very good customer service attentiveness at a young age. Highly recommended to try this place out!“

“Open, spacious dining area- adequate for banquets of 60 tables. Private dining room has space for 30 customers. Karaoke with 50ft. screen. Great fresh seafood dinner and dim sum lunch. Fast and friendly services. Tasteful decorations. Prices are reasonable given quality of dishes.“

“We’ve been coming here for over a decade, and the quality has been consistently outstanding. Truly authentic Cantonese cuisine, with a warm vibe that works equally well for small dinners or large group gatherings. It’s easy to book, the staff are super accommodating, and they don’t just serve food, they tailor dishes exactly to your requests. Reliable, delicious, and welcoming every time. Highly recommended.“

“The food is authentic and really delicious and well-flavored. The portion size for some dishes are relatively small for their price. But other than that, the staff members were extremely helpful and kind. It's not so busy when we visit so the atmosphere was okay as well. Would visit again.“

“This is an absolutely wonderful place. I eat here for lunch and dinner. I’ve been coming for years and I absolutely love everything that I’ve ever eaten here from the green beans to the cabbage to the fish chicken. I don’t order Thanksgiving turkey from here was fantastic. This is a wonderful wonderful place.“

“Not sure how this is less than 4 stars considering it holds its own weight in an area with many other great restaurants. It's a traditional Cantonese seafood restaurant with the craziest selection of crabs, lobsters, and fish. We've celebrated family events with their set menus which were phenomenally authentic and delicious, and gotten takeout for regular dinners which arrived perfectly cooked still.

Service is extremely attentive (although don't expect warm fuzzy pleasantries if it's busy) and they've often gifted us dessert which was very kind of them.

Definitely a local gem.“

“Went with a group of 10+ people to have dinner in this restaurant that is well known for its Cantonese-style roast meat (pork, chicken and duck etc.). As such, one of the dishes that was selected was barbecue pork and roasted duck. The ordering experience was good as our group members interacted readily with the manager on duty on the choices of dishes to order. At the end of the meal, everyone was satisfied with the food as well as with the overall price charged for the meal. However, one must be prepared to talk louder as the noise level of this restaurant may be considered a bit uncomfortable for some.“

“Good food and very clean restaurant“

“HL will transport you into a luxurious dining hall with huge tv projections on each side to broadcast their fine offerings of foods and wedding services.
The food is similarly priced to koi palace but slightly better quality. Dim sum carts aren't pushed around the old fashion way. You order from a menu so each item comes out piping hot which adds to its quality. Can't say I had a single dish that didn't taste hot and fresh. Highly recommend to all dimsum and Chinese food lovers“

“Excellent food with an amazing service... I'll BE BACK!!! I'm 49 Jon Oldcastle Nike Hottest BOY...“

“They offer a great variety of pastries, focusing on northern Chinese-style baked goods. Their prices are reasonable, especially for my favorite dumplings. They often have additional promotions.

Parking: It's at a huge plaza. There are plenty parking spaces.“

“It was a small place where it is understaffed. The atmosphere was fair typical family owned Chinese restaurant. The food was quite good to my surprise. The dim sum was hot and above average the price was extremely reasonable. It was our first time there. We spent $45 per couple including tips of 20% for the value is the best I’ve seen in the South Bay and the food was definitely better than many other dim sum restaurants.“

“Sweet family-owned restaurant. This place is called Elite Dumpling for a reason!! Get their dumplings.

I see people on here complaining about the other food, but you’re not trying the best stuff. Food is delicious and comes out very fast.

I recommend their potstickers, chili oil wontons, all the dumplings, salt and pepper pork chops, and walnut shrimp.

They even give you free goodies when you order over $30, $50, and $100. In this economy, it’s impressive. Thank you for being a neighborhood staple!“

“The Dim Sum brunch js always delicious. Come early to guarantee a seat for larger parties of 6 or more. They are friendly and very accommodating. I also enjoy their dinner menu. I also recommend this restaurant for banquet style dinners and special occasions.“

“Delicious donuts and hopia at a reasonable price😋“

“Always good. I come here to eat whenever I'm in the area. Best canto food and in a clean and nice location with plenty of parking. Is located in the parking lot of a business area, which I find kind of weird but totally awesome for the fact that it's easily accessible.

This place also serves dim sum thoughout the day, which is a total plus in my opinion because most places don't serve them some past 2:00 p.m.

The dim sum is actually pretty legit and traditional. You can get pretty busy during lunch time, but it moves pretty quickly.“

“The food here was AMAZING! The service was very quick and all of the waitstaff were extremely kind and welcoming. I don't have any pictures to include because my friends and I ate it so quickly after it came out! Would highly suggest this as a dimsum spot for people to come eat!“
